It explores all the elements of art: line, shape, color, value, etc. Then, there are Art experiences in the back, which encourage the kids to try to mimic some of art's great works. I have the Drawing with Children book, too, and just could never make or find the time to get into it. I'm enjoying this resources much more-- there are tons of activities to pick and choose from. Definitely something you can use more than 1 year. You can see the whole book at evan-moor.com.<BR/><BR/>Love your blog!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8719499255804821889.post-17186397499952350872007-10-08T09:06:00.000-05:002007-10-08T09:06:00.000-05:00I've never heard of Spellwell, but we are in the s...I've never heard of Spellwell, but we are in the same boat as you and using ETC for spelling mainly.
